Model C Engine Covers
Hi All
Just joined the forum and hope someone may be able to help with my restoration.
I've had a model C in the shed for a number of years and have decided its time to pull it out and give it some attention. The bike is complete with the exception of the engine covers which like most were discarded by a previous owner years ago.
As the chances of finding a replacement set are slim I'm thinking about trying to fabricate some from sheet material. With only photos to work from that will probably mean a lot of trial and error before I get anything that looks right.
Has anyone on this forum got a set of originals that would be willing to help with measurements/pattern or has make replicas before?.
Regards Roy

Unfortunately my Model C like most of the others also lacks engine covers. Since there is not much activity on this forum, it might be worth your while to post on the MACC forum. I know that there is a guy on that who does have a Model C with engine covers.
